just fine. still watching that emergency construction on the delaware memorial bridge. two right lanes are open heading into delaware this morning. yesterday we only had one, so we may see a little bit of relief this morning. it may be a little better, but still plan on being stuck for a little bit. get out the door early. >> all right. thank you, jessica. that emergency construction on the delaware memorial bridge that jessica was just talking about is expected to cause backups again today. >> crews are working to fix cables on the suspension bridge. nbc 10's pamela osborne is in pensville, salem county, where we're already starting to see some backup there. bring us up to speed, pam. >> reporter: tracy, vai, good morning to you. what we're seeing right now is an increase in the amount of cars on the road. you can see things are moving pretty smoothly at the moment. there is a point where you get out there a little in the distance where you can see police flashing lights. some of those restrictions taking place. i want to give you a look overhead.

compromised and in need of immediate attention. so not the kind of thing you want to put off. >> over 200 cables on each bridge. we're talking about three cables. for us to be able to do this in an efficient manner, we have to limit the weight on the bridge so we can address the cables. >> reporter: and if you're traveling the delaware memorial bridge, keep in mind the two left lanes will be closed, and the speed limit is 35 miles per hour. it's really important that you want to follow those reduced speeds because this is what is going on around you. you may not be able to see the work being done from on the bridge, but it is happening, and it's happening in some tricky spots. workers say they're moving as quickly as possible. also keep in mind if you're going southbound, you may see some delays as well. >> some technical issues there.

open. we saw major, major jam-ups as well. we also have construction on the new jersey turnpike right around exit 1 at route 40. that's going to tie you up as well. you can take 95 and head southbound into delaware as well. this is the garden state parkway. we're looking around summer's point coming out of the toll plaza. we are seeing some construction. down to one lane. you can see they have cones in place through this construction zone. a sign right over here that is flashing and making cars merge over to the left-hand side. >> all right, jessica. thanks. 6:41, 46 degrees outside. hail to the queen. >> a big birthday today for queen elizabeth. we'll tell you how she's celebrating. plus -- ♪ -- yeah, the queen of soul. sing it, aretha. we're coming back to the area
